The whole furry thing is creepy as hell. It’s weird. Wanting to have sex with anthropomorphized animals is not a thing that should be normalized.
And it’s even creepier when they add things like “kitten” or showing anthropomorphized animal kids.
And thank you to Unruffled [they/them] / Flatworm7591 @lemmy.dbzer0.com for this sane and reasonable response.
And thanks to recursive_recursion who seems to be an alt of Flatworm for continuing that sane and reasonable response. Note that in over 1,400 comments here I’ve never once said a single word against trans people. Not once.
It really bothers me when people lie about racism. So many people really do experience it so much in life, and lying using false racism accusations as a sword and shield to make other people look bad and make themselves look like the victim is demeaning to every real instance people suffer.
Hopefully one day this person realizes that lying about transphobia for the same reasons does the same thing.
Can you point to the words that you’re interpreting as me saying it’s ok to be racist?
I did, it’s that section I quoted - wherein you put forward the idea that we have protected groups (queers, blacks, women, etc) because it’s not considered wrong to dislike any [protected] group of people because of what they do. Implying that we have protected groups because it’s acceptable to be racist/sexist/homophobic, and by extension what you’re doing is also acceptable.
You don’t see the incredibly problematic comparison you’ve just made?
No, you’re misunderstanding.
The reason we have protected groups as opposed to simply saying that voicing any dislike of anything that any group of people does is always wrong is because it’s not always wrong.
